She Walks in Beauty [Audio Book Review]

by Nursetopia on October 8, 2012

She Walks in Beauty: A Woman’s Journey Through Poems is a collection of poems, both modern and classic, curated by Caroline Kennedy. The poems focus on broad themes of womanhood. Some of the poems I knew, and it was nice to remember them. They made me think of my amazing high school English, theater, and art teachers, all phenomenal women who instilled in me a love of literature and the art of writing. Many of the poems, though, were new to me, and I loved hearing them for the first time. They made me think. They made me angry. They made me laugh. They made me cry. All are signs of great writing.
